For every 330 buns that Adam's factory produces,
it produces 90 cupcakes.
It produces a total of 840 buns and cupcakes,
- How many buns does Adam's factory bake?
- How many more buns than cupcakes does Adam's factory produce?
(a)
Number of buns and cupcakes per set
= 330 + 90
= 420
Number of sets
= 840 ÷ 420
= 2
Number of buns that Adam's factory produces
= 2 x 330
= 660
(b)
Number of cupcakes that Adam's factory produces
= 2 x 90
= 180
Number of more buns than cupcakes
= 660 - 180
= 480
Answer(s): (a) 660; (b) 480
